Lin Dong's answer made Cao Lei instantly ashamed.
Her mouth was wide open, with surprise and panic on her face. She wanted to scream, she wanted to ask Lin Dong why he said that, but she didn't scream this time because Shen Fang held her hand tightly. , signaling her to stay put.
As the oldest comrade among them, Shen Fang vaguely discovered the secret exchange between Xu San and Lin Dong. Although she didn't know what the exchange was about, she knew that it might be related to whether they could leave Xiangshan Town safely.
But Lin Dong's relieved expression in the end also surprised him, and he didn't understand why he had such an expression.
It takes a lot of courage for a young man to admit such a shameless thing in front of his comrades. Shouldn't he have a decisive expression at this time?
not understand!
Maybe this is what men are.
Maybe this is the necessary process for men to grow up.
At this point, Xu San began to translate the conversation just now, but it was adapted by him.
The process is basically restored, except that the two people in the story have a crush on each other, but neither one knows what the other is thinking.
In addition, Xu San also gave Lin Dong the identity of a young master, and Cao Lei also gave Lin Dong the identity of a working girl.
As for what happened later, Xu San said that Lin Dong wanted to protect him secretly, but he ended up seeing things he shouldn't have seen.
Due to the different cultural differences between the two countries, Xu San also gave a special explanation.
Women are naturally gossips, and they especially like this kind of cross-class love, so Jerry's secretary walked up to Xu San, pulled up her skirt, saluted, and asked, "Brother Thomas, according to the custom you mentioned, will that girl be the future one?" Can’t we get married?”
"I think so! Chinese people attach great importance to this aspect!" Xu San said with a bit of regret.
The secretary glanced at Cao Lei, shook her head, and said, "Then she is so pitiful. I think you must have a way to help her, right?"
This is what the magic stick Xu San and others said.
He saluted his secretary devoutly, "They are all Zhu's believers and have thrown themselves into Zhu's arms, so they will not be bound by those feudal etiquette. However, since Zhu allowed me to witness their love in times of crisis. , then we decided to fulfill them.”
"Then how are you going to help them?" the secretary asked curiously.
"I plan to hold a wedding for them now, so that I can break the feudal shackles."
The magic stick Xu San spent a long time and finally expressed his thoughts.
"Oh~" the secretary covered her mouth, and it took a long time before she could speak, "Oh my God, Mr. Monk, are you serious?"
"Although I'm not a priest yet, I think I can preside over this wedding." As he said that, Xu San turned his attention to Tom, "Mr. Tom, what do you think of my proposal?"
Tom looked at Jerry, "I think this proposal is good, at least it's more interesting than playing cards."
Jerry hesitated.
Xu San looked at it and snorted coldly, "Liverpool people are just like their team, they are all idiots with only muscles and no idea of romance."
"Oh, what did you say?" When Jerry heard that his team was insulted, his temper immediately jumped over and he punched Xu San mercilessly.
Xu San had already been prepared for this. He just smiled contemptuously, turned slightly to avoid the fist, stretched his legs, then put his left hand on his neck and knocked down the strong Jerry with a single movement. On the ground.
This move was originally Hua Zejin's jujitsu.
Xu San was thrown twice by this move, which gave him a lot of experience. Although he was not as fluent as Hua Zejin, it was not a problem to knock down an unsuspecting strong man.
Jerry got up and wanted to continue his attack, but was stopped by his secretary, "Dear Jerry, don't you think it's unreasonable for you to wave your fists at a monk like this?"
"But he insulted Liverpool!" Jerry roared angrily.
"Football? That's your men's business. I'm just concerned about whether that poor Chinese girl can get the wedding she wants." The secretary puffed up her chest and said with an unhappy tone.
Jerry put away his fists, looked down at his secretary and said, "Dear Lucy, I also saw a romantic wedding, but I don't want to see this Manchester United fan."
"But he is a monk and the only one among us who can officiate at weddings." Lucy said, raising her head and staring at Jerry.
Then two other British women came over to help, for they too wanted to see a wedding.
Jerry could shake his fists when facing Xu San, but when he faced a woman, he had no ability to parry and was defeated in an instant.
Lin Dong had been watching the situation on Xu San's side, hoping to understand something with his vocabulary of a hundred words. Unfortunately, he didn't understand a word until the fight started.
Seeing Jerry leave angrily, Lin Dong came over and asked in a low voice, "Brother Thomas, what were you talking about just now? I see why the fight started."
"My dear friend, we were discussing the wedding just now, and we had a little dispute, but now the problem has been resolved."
"Wedding! What wedding? Who's wedding to whom?" Lin Dong asked cautiously, but he had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Of course it's your wedding to Ms. Cao Lei. You did such an outrageous thing. According to your Chinese customs, shouldn't you marry her?"
Although Lin Dong was mentally prepared, he was still confused after Xu San said it.
Not only him, but the four girls in the reporting team were also confused!
this
They really couldn't accept it.
Although Lin Dong saw something he shouldn't have seen.
But shouldn’t this matter just be an apology?
How did this develop into marriage?
How can a marriage be such a trivial matter?
Moreover, this organization has not yet approved it, so how can we get married casually?
"Isn't this a bit too fast? According to custom, marriage events should have the consent of the elders." Lin Dong began to look for excuses, hoping that this was not true.
But Xu San put his hand on his shoulder again and tapped out that familiar rhythm.
This is part of the plan.
What the hell is the plan? What kind of mission must sacrifice the innocence of labor and capital! ?
I'm getting married here, how can I explain it to Xiao Hong?
Lin Dong feels desperate now.
At this time, he felt that he was in a desperate situation between marriage and career.
Facing this desperate situation, he felt more dangerous than when he was surrounded by ninjas.
Several girls also wanted to come over and ask what was going on with Lin Dong or Xu San, especially Cao Lei. She thought she was so unlucky that she got caught in the bathroom just when she was going to the toilet.
Thinking of this, he looked at Lin Dong with a hint of complaint!
Lin Dong covered his head and squatted on the ground, looking like he had been hit hard.
He felt that what he experienced today was the most incredible thing he had ever experienced.
From being attacked by ninjas, to Xu San secretly delivering news to him, and finally taking refuge in the yard, these were all normal and he could accept them.
But after arriving in this courtyard, the situation developed in a very strange direction.
Until now, there is even such a thing as marriage, and the marriage partner is still a gay person whom I have only known for less than half a month.
He understands that when something goes wrong, there must be a monster.
I also understand that Xu San must have his reasons for doing this.
But he just can't accept it!
Shen Fang squatted beside him, "Brother Thomas is right, as a man, you have to be responsible!"
"I"
"I know you, and I know Cao Lei. In fact, you two are a good match, and it would be good to become a couple. I had a similar experience with your Uncle Wei earlier."
Shen Fang said with a smile that she did not lie to Lin Dong. She and Wei Lin did pretend to be a couple back then. This kind of pretending to be a couple is a common thing among intelligence agents. For example, Xu San and Sister Hua were fake couples. .
"But... I'm still young." Lin Dong said aggrievedly.
"That year, I was only 17 years old!"
Shen Fang continued to smile, then patted Lin Dong on the shoulder, "If you feel bad, you can divorce in the future. Don't all the West advocate freedom of marriage? You have read so many books, don't you still know this?"
Lin Dong blinked and seemed to understand the link.
Yes!
If it's not suitable, you can get divorced.
but
If I get divorced, won’t I become second-hand?
Shen Fang stood up. It seemed that there wasn't much going on on Lin Dong's side, and Cao Lei was next.
Turning her head to look at Xu San, who was discussing the details with three British women, she knew that everything that happened in front of her was arranged by this man.
As an intelligence agent who has worked for many years, he has good eyesight. Although Xu San looks very young, he sees in Xu San the same stability and vicissitudes as Wei Lin.
This is very inconsistent with age.
Feeling that someone was watching her, Xu San turned to look at Shen Fang and greeted her with a smile.
Tom's house is very big and has many houses.
The three women chose a spacious room as a simple chapel for their wedding.
Dong Asan and his group are basically religious, so setting it up is not a big deal.
Being in a foreign country, I kept it as simple as possible. Even the cross that was required in the church was made temporarily by cutting branches in the yard.
As for other items such as tables and chairs, they were also moved from various rooms.
In this process, the four girls in the reporting team also participated, and with the help of Xu San, they were able to communicate simply through pens, paper, and English-Chinese dictionaries.
Cao Ying was 22 years old, dressed very plainly and without makeup, but at this moment, Lucy had caught her in another room and started putting on makeup.
After simple makeup and a change of clothes, Cao Ying reappeared in front of everyone coyly.
Western make-up is generally heavier. Under Lucy's care, Cao Ying seemed to have changed when she saw people again.
She has become a lot more charming.
She seemed to be a social animal before, but now she can vaguely see a hint of the modern style unique to this era.
Seeing Cao Lei like this, Lin Dong's heart moved slightly, and he thought to himself, I didn't expect that Sister Cao is also pretty, but she is still not as good-looking as my Xiaohong.
After Lucy looked at Cao Ying's current appearance, she was very satisfied with her craftsmanship.
"This dress matches you very well. I will give it to you as a wedding gift after the wedding is over." Lucy said generously.
I couldn’t understand it, but Xu San translated.
"How can you be so embarrassed!" Cao Ying quickly waved her hand and refused.
Lucy knew what Cao Ying meant by looking at her movements. She stretched out her hands and pinched her waist and said with a hint of complaint, "This dress no longer fits me. Damn Chinese delicacies have made me lose weight." It has never been lowered, and now none of the original clothes can be worn.”
After Xu San translated, he continued, "Just keep the clothes. It is very impolite in our country to refuse other people's gifts."
"Then I'll accept it, thank you, Miss Lucy."
Cao Lei finished dressing up, and the only one left was Lin Dong.
But he didn't have this kind of treatment, so he found a suit that Tom no longer wore and put it on and it was done.
Whether in the East or in the West, weddings must be lively, so the four drivers who had been staying in the car were allowed to participate.
Xu San's goal has finally been achieved after all the hard work.
In the early morning, the rising sun slowly opened the curtain, shining a gorgeous ray of morning glow into this small church located in Xiangshan Town.
The melodious violin played slowly, and the wedding that Xu San came to was officially started.
Xu San knew the wedding process quite well. After all, this program could be easily seen on TV in later generations.
First, the newlyweds entered. The groom Lin Dong, accompanied by Xu San, walked to the ceremony stage and waited quietly for the bride's arrival. Then Cao Lei slowly walked onto the ceremony stage under the guidance of Lucy.
Compared with Lin Dong's dead fish face, Cao Lei's performance was much better. She lowered her head at the moment and looked coquettish, like a rose in bud, which looked very photogenic.
"Smile, don't look like a dead fish on your big day." Xu San, who was standing aside, warned in a low voice.
o(*￣︶￣*)o
"That's right!" Seeing Lin Dong's change of expression well, Xu San couldn't help but praise him.
After the newlyweds entered the ceremony, Xu San announced the start of the wedding and prayed according to the procedures.
After the prayer, Xu San lit the family candle, which is the two next to the three candles.
Usually, when lighting the family candle, one starts to recite scriptures. These scriptures can be articles about marriage or beautiful poems. There are no big restrictions. Xu San is not good at this, so Lucy recited a passage from Shakespeare. of poetry.
At the end of the poem, Xu San looked at all the relatives and friends, "Who is willing to bless this happy marriage?"
After asking in both Chinese and English, Yan Xiaoqing reluctantly said, "I do!"
Then he said some words of blessing.
Yan Xiaoqing's literary talent is still very good, so good that Xu San didn't even know how to translate it.
But this was not a problem for Xu San, and he was able to deal with it by just making some nonsense.
Next, comes the most important part, which is the scene that everyone often sees in movies and TV series.
Xu San asked: "Are you willing to marry Miss Cao Lei as your wife? Live with her/him in a sacred marriage contract, whether in sickness or in health, poverty or wealth, beauty or eclipse, success or frustration, you are willing Love her, comfort her, respect her, protect her? And are you willing to be loyal to her forever throughout your lives?"
This paragraph is in Chinese. Although there is no translation, the few people present understand it.
Yingge understood clearly, and Lin Dong also understood that in order to quickly end this suffering, he answered simply, "I do!"
Next, the ring exchange session was changed to a token exchange.
Lin Dong took out a jade pendant, and Cao Lei took out a jade bracelet.
Both jade articles are of good quality and would cost one hundred and eighty thousand in later generations.
Xu San knew a little about Lin Dong's identity, but it seemed that Cao Lei's identity was not simple. At least his family background should be good.
Usually a movie or TV series should end here.
but
Weddings by formal believers require the bride, groom, introducer, officiant and witnesses to sign the marriage certificate in order.
This marriage certificate is the most important thing in a Christian wedding, it is even more important than the previous ceremony.
Looking at this bilingual marriage certificate in Chinese and English, Lin Dong felt that he had given up his life, but for the sake of revolution, he still signed his name on it!
Finally, after Cao Lei also signed her name, Xu San lit the marriage candle. (End of chapter)
